Chapter 112

She then heard her past self singing “Como La Flor in a young and childish voice.

“What if we Get caught again? What if we can’t get out?” The boy’s voice echoed again.

“Silly, how could we not escape when I’m with you! I promise I’ll get us out!”

“If you leave me behind, you’d probably be able to run away,” the boy said.
